BELT CLEANING TECHNOLOGY Portable Systems for Flat Belts 1.800.333.7467 www.goodway.com goodway@goodway.com
Goodway has two types of portable systems for cleaning flat conveyor belts: Brush and Brushless. Both types are designed for cleaning flat belts (webs) in a wide range of environments, from dry environments where wet cleaning has to be avoided, to damp and wet environments. The systems use steam to break down debris and oils, sanitizing as they work. An efficient vacuum draws away the debris and moisture to leave the belt dry. The Brushless System is best suited for cleaning light debris, oils and many confectionery products such as chocolate. The Brush System has a rotating food grade brush to help shift more stubbornly adhered debris, such as thicker deposits of caramel and pastry. The speed and ease in which the belt cleaners fit to each belt make these very costeffective and useful belt cleaning solutions for multiple belts. The cleaning heads use the power of steam from portable steam generator technology without resorting to chemicals, using as little as 7-14 gal of tap water per hour. These are powerful and environmentally attractive tools for the food industry. PRODUCT FEATURES Full width steam clean Vacuum removal of debris and moisture leaving the belt dry Portable and fully adjustable for use on different belts Good for dry environments Minimal water usage from only 7 gal per hour FDA contact materials Quick and easy set up Robust and hygienic design BENEFITS Improves line productivity (availability) Speeds-up conveyor cleaning Saves on maintenance and labor costs Frees-up sanitation staff Improves sterility kills microorganisms Maintains or increases product shelf life Extends life of conveyor belts 2 Belt Cleaning Technology Portable Systems for Flat Belts

Goodway GVC models from 9kw to 72kw. Model shown is GVC-18000 DRY STEAM CLEANER Steam for cleaning is generated using a dry steam cleaner. This powerful machine retains all the features for general steam cleaning, and can also be used to power Goodway belt cleaning equipment. As standard, the Goodway models have auto external water feed, auxiliary electrical socket for external equipment, panel control for steam functions, wetness control, high and low steam power, fine variable steam control, integrated 10 gallon water tank, long life electrolytic water softener, and centralized E-stop. No other portable dry steam cleaner has been this well thought out for functionality and long life, and is uncompromisingly engineered for both specialized applications and general cleaning. 4 Belt Cleaning Technology Portable Systems for Flat Belts
CONVEYOR CLEANING HEAD Steam from the dry steam cleaner is fed to the conveyor cleaning head for applying to the moving conveyor. A vacuum is attached to remove the debris and moisture. The Goodway cleaning head has many design features that make this the most usable portable belt cleaners available for cleaning flat belts in the food industry. As standard the Brush and Brushless Systems are fully portable between different belts, fully and quickly adjustable for structure width, fully adjustable for brush contact (brush version), 24V DC power (brush version) from the transformer, simple operation, quick release steam connections, quick release 24VDC cord, low weight with robust hygienic construction. Brush and Brushless Systems are available to suit all sizes of conveyor 1.800.333.7467 WWW.GOODWAY.COM 5

High temp quick release collars. Virtually any size, and can be used on similar sized belts, to about 10 of the maximum designed width. Example: A belt cleaner designed to clean a maximum 34 wide belt will be suitable to clean belts around 24 to 34 wide. Note steam will be delivered over the vacant width, resultant moisture normally extracted by the vacuum. Standard arrangement uses a slim tray inserted under the belt and clamped to the conveyor structure. Unless otherwise specified the tray is supplied to fit a structure 7.87" wider than the maximum designed belt width. The standard tray overhangs the maximum conveyor structure width by 3.93" each side. Example: The standard arrangement for a belt cleaner designed to clean a maximum 33.46" belt will clamp against the sides of a maximum 41.33" wide structure. The overall length of tray would be approximately 49.21". Please note that the tray can be made to other proportions.
